Brute of y Husband.
BOULDER, Col, Feb. 10.-Mr. and
Mrs. Wendolin Mol, a young married
couple living at the mouth of Left
Hand Greek, eight miles from here,
to all appearances have been very
happy until three weeks ago, when
their first baby was born, when the
husband became very abusive and
qu~arrelsome. On Sunday night, Moll,
without any provocation struck his
wife in the face several times, knock
ing her down. She did not resent the
assault, being almost heart-broken at
his brutality. Monday morning the
husband got up early, built a fire,
cooked coffee and drank it, and then
sat down to smoke. His wife was still
in bed nursing the babe, and had
fallen into a doze, when she was awak-
ened by the report of a gun. She
jumped up, but fell to the floor ncon
scious, the ball having entered her
shoulder and passed into her neck.
Mol disappeared. She recovered and
climbed into bed with great difficulty.
and sank into a stupor. When she
came to again the babe was crying,
but she having become paralyzed was
| unable to move or to reach. The fire
| went out, and the babe cried until
midnight, when it died. The woman
was not discovered until Tuesday
| night, when some relatives called at
| the house. The woman cannot re-
| cover. Officers and a posse Of citizens
| are pursuing the murderer, who it is
thought escaped to the mountains.
Arrest Of PostOfice Thieves.
Bound BROOK, N. j., Feb. 10.-Dar-
| ing thieves entered the Postofice here
last night. They were discovered by
a railroad agent, and he at once OPEN
| ed fire on them. One thief was shot,
| but managed to get to the Raritan
river, where he jumped in, hoping to
| escape by swimming to the other side.
| Loss of blood weakened him greatly,
| and the icy water numbed him. When
a short distance from the shore he ut
| tered a despairing cry, and sank and
was drowned. The pal of the drowned
thief made a desperate struggle for
| freedom, but was overpowered and
| taken into custody. The robbers were
| members of the same gang who en-
| tered the Jersey City Postoffice a few
days ago, and bound the Waterman
and %janitor and tried to rob the safe.
A Mill by Feather Weights.
Troy, n. Y, Feb. 10.-Sporting
men from New York, Albany and
| Troy, left the latter city about mid
night on a special train, to see what
was announced to be a fight to the
finish between Tommy Warren,
feather weight champion, and Robby
Haight, local feather weight. Eight
rounds were fought. Haight stand
ing up remarkably well and giving
Warren a black eye, but refusing to
respond after the eighth round, in
which Warren manifestly had the adj
vantage, Haight insisted that he had
agreed to stand up for only this many
rounds, but the refee did not SO un-
derstand it, and the fight was awarded
to Warren.

Possibly Murder and Suicide.
DEs MONIES, Ia, Feb. 10.-News
was received here to-day of a horrible
accident or tragedy that occurred yes
terday about six miles northwestern
of Jefferson. A small farm house oc-
cupied by a man named Lucklum was
entirely consumed by fire at 3 o'clock,
and Lucklum's aged father, wife and

Two neighboring women saw the
flames and tried to get in, but the
